When you say “burst mode”, I hope you don’t mean to include a timed stepdown. There’s a thermal sensor in the driver, isn’t there?
Of course, that may not change much in practice, but I much prefer lights that only reduce output in response to actual need rather than predicted need. I’m prone to doing stuff like this after all:
Told you about Narsil, but kind of missed your pic, We don’t know if the FW3A will be abl to be submersed in water, it must be able to be used in rain that yes
That’s great to hear about the stepdowns and throttling. I probably could have, and should have looked up the Narsil documentation myself.
As to immersion, I’m not counting on it, but if the FW3A is rated for it, I’ll do the same test. My main goal wasn’t actually to test the Prime’s waterproofing (though it did prove to be perfectly waterproof), but to cool it enough for a runtime graph without thermal stepdowns. My fan was insufficient.
I thought it would be ready within 1-2 months
Well, I can allocate my piggy bank account to another flashlight before this flashlight become available.
